What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Hey if anyone comes across a hood with the scoop for my gen (08 taco quad cab) let me know. Id prefer to find one in ultra-white if I can.

 

Installed the KBvoodoo mid height long bed rack and ordered all the goodies to go on it. Doing a 1000 mile road trip at the end of the month for an archery deer hunt and this will be the headquarters

 

Not very familiar with it. Is there any danger of it hanging up on something and dumping your oil out?

 

Probably has about an inch of clearance under the crossmember.i dont do any gnarly wheelin so is very safe.

 

Nice. I might have to add one to my rig.

 

Yeah Alpine Loop, also took the dirt road up toward Pittsburgh Lake. I was about a week late on missing the real bright colors, but still beautiful up there.

 

If you wheel then a good chance of damage but that's what aftermarket IFS skids are for However if yours a mall crawler/pavement princess then I wouldn't worry.

 

Must be the week for it...just installed mine that has been sitting in the garage a while waiting on the 180,000 oil change. I went with the nipple version, but it has a threaded end. I just left the nipple in the hose and will thread it in when needed and out when not so as to not hang down any further. Best of both worlds. Rest of the change was Mobile 1 full synthetic and an OEM filter.

 

Yeah mine looked like a washer was welded on as well when I installed it 4 years ago. I didn’t put the included washer on. Been fine since.

 

I'm pretty much DRD.. (dirt road drivin)and it's gonna get pretty muddy at times. But nothing too nasty or rough.

 

Do you have a part # or link for this valve?

 

Anybody know the cheapest place to buy BLACK tacoma door badges? Not looking to plastidip, best i found is ebay for $33 for one

 

Maybe get one of the guys on here that makes stickers to cut some for you. They'd look good and be way easier to clean.

 

all gone late as usual

 

Bought this bad boy a little over a week ago! So far all I'll I've done is debadge it, and tint the windows. Ordered some Falken Wildpeaks today and going to be picking up a set of Trd wheels hopefully tomorrow. Should be getting the lift next month!!

 

Very nice. Welcome aboard Richard!

 

Got my cab rack side lights sorted out and mounted. Ran a few jumper wires to em from the battery to power and aim them.

I mounted them so they're behind the fairing when you look at the truck from the front. This could keep them from making noise.

Tomorrow, I'll run some actual wiring for them.

Im not sure what I wanna do with the switch yet so Im gonna run a temporary on/off switch until I decide but I wanna get them all hooked up for this weekend camping trip.











I may move the front pods to the front corners of the rack once I build the new fairing to everything looks more symmetrical.

The 41" light bar for the front of the rack will be here tomorrow...

 

Great job on the rack and lights that looks really handy now you've got me thinking damit

 

Hi, Nice looking truck. What brand of bug deflector do you have?

 

It is the EZ-103 from http://www.oildrainvalve.net/Toyota/
Same principle as the Fumoto just like having the option of the threaded nipple.
